The Two Faces of January Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
[Hossein Amini's] polished storytelling carries this along, generally compensating for the mundane visuals and the actors' skilled but unmoored performances.
Arizona Republic
Randy Cordova
At a certain point, it's akin to reading a mediocre murder mystery. You finish it because you're too far in to quit, as opposed to actually caring how things wrap up.
Grantland
Wesley Morris
What the movie lacks in suspense, it could make up for with erotic tension. That's missing, too.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Everything about The Two Faces of January is right, even as the events it describes - a couple's idyllic Grecian holiday, a charming American's adventures abroad - go terribly wrong.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The movie never reaches a boil. Instead, it simmers and simmers until you're suddenly shocked at the hot water you're in.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Things get awfully twisted under that hot Mediterranean sun.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Kristin Tillotson
A stylish directorial debut for screenwriter Hossein Amini.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
It follows three people, all of them flawed and under pressure, and keeps the audience in sympathy with all three. It's some kind of feat to place three people in conflict and have the audience wish the best for each of them.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
It offers a lesson in crafting antiheroic characters. We don't have to identify with them, but we at least need to be intrigued.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
You should see it just for Chester-the adventurous sham, running ever deeper into a maze of his own devising.
Complex
David Ehrlich
A tightly rolled cigarillo, the kind of thing you smoke on holiday while overlooking the ocean from your hotel balcony.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
Gorgeous, occasionally evocative, but, in the end, mostly dull.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
There are no jolting twists or shocking reveals. The reward lies mostly in accepting each character on his or her terms.
RogerEbert.com
Odie Henderson
This is one of Mortensen's best performances, and "The Two Faces of January" is one gorgeously rendered old-school feature.
CinemaBlend
Kristy Puchko
Starts strong, but finishes sloppy.
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
Even when the plot threatens to crumble, the actors know what to do with the pieces.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
There's a mystery here, some thrills and blood, but mostly there are beautiful people and the kind of human hunger that devours everything and everyone in sight.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
All the pieces would seem to be in place for an effective film, but the direction is zestless, the pace is more often laggardly than leisurely, and the lead performances are surprisingly lifeless ...
NPR
Tomas Hachard
The Two Faces of January feels shot too tight and cut too tight; it doesn't push forward at a bewilderingly fast pace, but its story and its performances still feel like they need more room to breathe.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Is the film too old-school for short attention spans? Maybe. Rest assured that Amini's shuddery endgame is well worth the wait.
